David Schwimmer has swapped his £650,000-an-episode Friends role for a £3-a-night part in a raunchy play. The actor, who plays Ross in the hit series, appears as a high-living movie director in The Turnaround at the Coast Playhouse in Los Angeles. According to The Sun, his character snorts cocaine and has "kinky sex." Schwimmer said: "Friends has given me the financial security to choose other roles without money being a deciding factor."
